Wednesday, November 27, 2024 - A crossword clearly written by a BELESPRIT

English is a ravenous language, devouring words from other languages and claiming them as their own. Such is the case with one of our favorite entries in today's puzzle -- 66A, Clever person, BELESPRIT (two words, to be accurate, BEL ESPRIT). This came from the French, English laid claim to it, and, alas, promptly forgot about it, it is now considered archaic. We love it anyway, as well as all the other clues, to say nothing of the splendid theme, found in today's puzzle.Deets inside, so download, and feast upon today's episode.Show note imagery: All the Light We Cannot See, a pulitzer winning novel by Andrew DOERR.We love feedback!
